Did I miss a media event or exposure of the steem platform or is this sudden growth just cause by the account creating system?

Probably they have fixed of something or just started to manually approve bigger quantities of users.

Great analysis, mor users are trooping in daily. Amazing news indeed. Thank you for the info@arcange

So in 1 month time there are just below 200k active users. On a total number of 700k-900k users this is about 25% of the users that are active. Also in February is the first time that we can see a decline in the number of active users. That is a very bad thing is you ask me.

What is your opinion?

  • About ratio actives/inactives
    Did you ever wondered how many inactive accounts there are on Facebook, Instagram, ... I guess no, because they do not publish such information.
    The great thing with blockchain based networks is that a you can't hide everything.
    Don't let you scare.

  • About decline in february
    The life is made of ups and downs. Having a small down in February isn't a problem to me. It will not be the first time it happened. Steemit is a young project and a long run. The long term trend is going up!

You are right about FB and other social media. I think they even do publish some data so now and then.

And they also have lots of inactive people. I check my Facebook twice a year 😀

You could also be right that this could be a temporary dip. At this moment difficult to tell.

As newbie I still have the feeling there are many things that need to be solved. But it's difficult to prove this with data. And even then there should always be discussion.

So I just keep enjoying Steemit. And I hope my fear will be proven wrong in the long term. And that I can enjoy Steemit to become as popular as some other popular social media.
